Reclaim Your Legacy
Ancestry Reconstruction TherapyTM is the Center for Freedmen Heritage & Records' innovative approach to helping individuals reconnect with their documented family history and strengthen their sense of identity, belonging, and intergenerational continuity. Through guided genealogy research, historical records, storytelling, and community engagement, participants move beyond simply discovering ancestors to understanding how their family's journey has shaped the present.
By restoring connections that were disrupted by slavery, segregation, displacement, and other historical forces, Ancestry Reconstruction Therapy empowers individuals to reclaim their heritage, preserve their family's legacy, and contribute to the restoration of future generations.
Help Others Reclaim Their Heritage. Strengthen Your Own Family History.

Meet OUR GENEALOGISTS
Our team of Certified Genealogists and Freedmen Genealogy Specialists is dedicated to helping individuals and families reconnect with their ancestral roots through careful historical research and documentation. Using records such as the Freedmen's Bureau records, federal census records, military records, vital records, land records, and other historical sources, they guide participants in documenting family lineages, verifying Freedmen ancestry, and preserving family histories for future generations. Their work supports the Center's mission to restore identity, strengthen intergenerational connections, and help descendants transform historical records into lasting family legacies.
